TOMS - Shoes with a conscious

Shoes that look great, feel wonderful, and warm the heart!


The perfect peaceful pair!!!


In Whistler, at the yoga conference, I heard about these shoes... I considered getting a pair, then I found the perfect ones and could not resist!
Chantal and I, TOMS flag in hand, at the Whistler Yoga Conference!!
Here is the background info:

With every pair you purchase, TOMS will give a pair of new shoes to a child in need. One for One.

TOMS Shoes was founded on a simple premise: With every pair you purchase, TOMS will give a pair of new shoes to a child in need. One for One. Using the purchasing power of individuals to benefit the greater good is what we're all about. The TOMS mission transforms our customers into benefactors, which allows us to grow a truly sustainable business rather than depending on fundraising for support.

Pure, simple, beautiful karma shoes.

Joy-a-toes!

Introducing.... Joy-a-Toes!!! These handy little babies are like yogic toe separators, yin yoga for your feet...

They feel amazing!!!



Joy-a-Toes help:
  • relax and rejuvenate tired, achy and swollen feet
  • realign the bones and soft tissue
  • stimulate circulation
  • increase flexibility and strength
  • open the energy channels and revitalizes the body
  • help reverse bunions
  • COUNTERPOSE FOR SHOES!!!

Chai latte and joy-a-toes!!! Bliss!
I take these things everywhere and use them all the time.
- To meditate
- In my yin yoga practice
- Anytime I feel like giving my feet a little love i.e. today in the coffee shop!

Where can you get them? Halfmoon Yoga Products sells them! Check out their joyful, toe-lovin' article @

Whistler Yoga Conference

May 6-8, 2011. What a beautiful experience! I am still floating from the bliss!
Highlights:
* Getting my chakras aligned with Anodea Judith

* Finding my "inner angel" with Clara Roberts-Oss

* Kundalini energy rising with Yogi Vishvketu

* Resting my happy aching muscles in the eucylipus steam room and hot tub at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler Resort
* Enjoying a wonderful long weekend of yoga, friends, and great energy!

I know this will become a tradition for years to come! My greatest thanks to all of the organizers, master teachers, and to my fellow yogis who made this an unforgettable experience!!!
